GFW Modena Double Lifting Coffee Table With Hidden Storage And 3 Storage Compartment, Wooden Storage Living Room Furniture Suitable For Hallway, Bedroom And Lounge

Easy instructions for assembly but noticed one table top did not sit straight when closed. Worked out that the predrilled holes on one side piece were in the wrong place. They were higher so when assembling a tape measure will show correct position. Once that was corrected I was very pleased with the table. Good value and plenty of storage plus the added benefit of a raised top when open for working on or eating.

I’ve only set up half table so far so it’s going good will post a video as soon as it’s done but can’t wait to finish it

This is not an expensive cabinet but looks quite good and works well. The wood coloured part in the middle is a fairly sloppy fit though and would benefit from being a few mm wider or else have some rubber pegs in the sides to make it fit more snugly. The worse thing about this item is that the corners are very sharp and everyone had scratched legs after a few days of manoeuvring around it. If you get one buy some clear plastic corner protectors to go with it.

I ordered this coffee table to replace my rather worn storage coffee table that we have had for over a decade. This table has a modern design that would fit well into most homes. The table comes flat packed so does require assembly. I would recommend that at least two people work on putting this together as it is a fairly long and arduous process. It took me and my partner around 2 hours to assemble. The instructions that are included are typical of a flat pack and not that great! Each piece of the table has a stamp or sticker indicating what that part is, the issue we found is that some of the stamps had rubbed off or not inked properly so it was guesswork trying to establish what section the instructions were referring too. Also the bag of screws/bolts are not separated out so again it’s guess work trying to work out what screw the manual refers to! I also found that several of the pieces were damaged (see my review pictures), either marked or scratched. I found this disappointing considering the price of the table. Of course once you have removed the many items from the box it is almost impossible to repackage and return for either a refund or exchange, therefore we just accepted that the quality was pretty poor and we would have to live with it.After a frustrating time putting the table together, we became even more disillusioned when the lids did not close properly and the centre cover did not fit with the end compartments closed. My partner then recognised that we may have put the compartment lids on the incorrect way round - there was nothing in the manual to indicate which way round these sections should be. We removed what felt like a hundred screws, flipped around the chipboard pieces and reassembled - voila it was now almost perfect. The alignment is ever so slightly out of the screw holes so there is not an even lip around the whole table, but by this time I'd had enough so I gave up and accepted how it was going to look.Looking at the table now I am fairly happy with it. It does look pretty good in our lounge, yes the quality isn’t great and the parts don’t fit together wonderfully well, but it is what it is. The table has 5 storage compartments that surprisingly hold a fair amount of ‘lounge junk’. The lid mechanism feels nice and sturdy.I have given this table 3 stars due to the build quality, poor instructions, damaged parts, design wise i would give 5 stars.

Cannot install each top to lift different sides despite the manual saying you can - if you do, one of them overlaps the middle cover. Apart from that, it's a decent table, spacious and sturdy
